Class StringOperand

All Implemented Interfaces:
Cloneable, Comparable<Operand<?>>, ArgsAccessor, Operand<String>, Synopsisable, Syntaxable, org.refcodes.mixin.AliasAccessor, org.refcodes.mixin.Clonable, org.refcodes.mixin.DescriptionAccessor, org.refcodes.mixin.Resetable, org.refcodes.mixin.Schemable<CliSchema>, org.refcodes.mixin.TypeAccessor<String>, org.refcodes.mixin.ValueAccessor<String>

public class StringOperand extends AbstractOperand<String>
An Operand (neither a short option nor a long option prepended nor being a switch) being s String. An Operand stands by itself and represents itself.
  • Constructor Details

    • StringOperand

      public StringOperand(String aAlias, String aDescription)
      Instantiates a new string operand.
      Parameters:
      aAlias - The identifier to be used when printing the syntax via the AbstractOperand.toSyntax(SyntaxNotation, String, String, String) method.
      aDescription - A description without any line breaks.
    • StringOperand

      public StringOperand(org.refcodes.struct.Relation<String,String> aProperty)
      Instantiates a new string operand.
      Parameters:
      aProperty - The key (= alias) and the value for the operand.
  • Method Details

    • toType

      protected String toType(String aArg)
      To value.
      Specified by:
      toType in class AbstractOperand<String>
      Parameters:
      aArg - the arg
      Returns:
      the string
    • toSynopsis

      public String toSynopsis(SyntaxNotation aSyntaxNotation, String aOptEscCode, String aParamEscCode, String aResetEscCode)
      Returns the human readable (verbose) syntax of implementing class ATTENTION: As of different parenthesis settings for some notations regarding the root Syntaxable and the child Syntaxables, the method Syntaxable.toSyntax(SyntaxNotation, String, String, String) is called from inside a Syntaxable hierarchy. In case the syntax is to be retrieved from the root Syntaxable or an encapsulating and different type, then the applicable method to be called is Synopsisable.toSynopsis(SyntaxNotation), as for some notations it will for example not create the most outer braces.
      Specified by:
      toSynopsis in interface Synopsisable
      Parameters:
      aSyntaxNotation - The syntax notation used for generating the command line arguments syntax.
      aOptEscCode - The escape code to be used when processing an option, e.g. this can be an ANSI Escape-Code to highlight the option.
      aParamEscCode - The escape code to be used when processing am argument, e.g. this can be an ANSI Escape-Code to highlight the option.
      aResetEscCode - The escape code to close (reset) any Escape-Code being set before.
      Returns:
      The human readable (verbose) command line arguments syntax.
